In The Deep Dark Jungle - Bob Luman

Take me out in the deep dark jungle

Where the sun never gets through

Because there’s no sunshine for me anyhow

If I have to live without you

Let me as the beat of the one minute drum

As it calls its lonesome ol' sound

It’s no more lonesome in the deep dark jungle

Then when you’re not around

The days are hot in the deep dark jungle

And black as night I understand

It must be the loneliest place in the world

And I’m the loneliest man

Let me as the beat of the one minute drum

As it calls its lonesome ol' sound

It’s no more lonesome in the deep dark jungle

Then when you’re not around

Let my teardrops fall like the tropical rain

Drowning the beat of my heart

Let the songbirds sing out the cry of the wild

For my baby says we’re apart

Let me as the beat of the one minute drum

As it calls its lonesome ol' sound

It’s no more lonesome in the deep dark jungle

Then when you’re not around
